Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

The 14% grades I this route were relatively short at only a few hundred feet, but they were on tight corners and when you meet up with a swift driver who is hugging the center line, needless to say it got a little tense

 

That is 226a, it's not recommended for trucks. But it's in the same area

 

I picked up in a rock quarry last week. Going in empty it was all I could do to climb it with the interlock engaged. Mostly a traction issue. On the way out at 83,680 lbs going down locked in, in 4th gear the jake held the truck no problem. The steep part of the road is probly 1/2 mile long. One of our other guys wouldn't even try going up last week. He rode up in a pickup truck and said no way.

I would be more afraid of going back UP it loaded than coming back down loaded.

It seems like they are keeping you plenty busy. How are you like the od loads?

 

They do keep me running, but im home more here making more in my checks than at previous company's.

I like the od stuff so far, but of a challenge but nothing where I'm in over my head

 

@Ruthless pretending he's Canadian...eh.

 

Well he's got a french canadian trailer and its a tridem so he's half way there. If he wants to fit in with the crazy french stick haulers he'll have to realize that the stakes are just a suggestion for load height and put a few more layers on

 

Won't catch me hauling logs: I see what those logging trucks go thru, splinters stuck between rim n tire, stumps into fuel tanks: too rough for my Bessie.
